Camp Cave

Post by CliffCaver »

What can I say this cave is just wow lol
The Downstream entrance is 5 feet and then fill has the rest at 3ish feet we observed several bats and even a snake 50ft in.
Total length of Cave 1,115ft it’s a in and out cave so there’s 2 entrances. There’s an intermittent pool of water that’s blocking the middle of the cave it’s very wet low and muddy 1ft to 2 ft of head room decided to find the other entrance and come from the other side. The other side was much more difficult the entrance isn’t to bad 5ft tall but immediately starts to drop to 4.5 finally to 1.5 it’s basically a crawl with it going back to 2ft to 3ft for 20 30 feet then it opens up to a large 14foot room with amazing formations I was in awe it continues after this but low again to another 15 foot room after this it meets at the middle and it’s all muddy and flooded. There’s also a side passage I didn’t explore I’ll have to do it next time. Anyways thanks for reading here’s the video https://youtu.be/hdC7Iu_bgY8

I recently had gone back to Camp Cave to make it all the way thru and I did! It was very intense it got so low I couldn’t turn my head with my helmet on! Then I crawled thru mud and cold water to get passed the middle, and finally made it out. It was 1,115ft!
Here’s the video of me going thru https://youtu.be/LUcchNQ4rD8
